Sorry guys, couldn’t help myself with the title there. Ocho did indeed fartsack to go see the eclipse in Tennessee (I’m assuming a video will surface of him bear crawling up a mountain, in which case, totally excusable), but this was more about YHC fartsacking twice last week. That’s not terrible in the grand scheme of things, but then also being out of town for Grundy’s epic mothership beatdown Saturday and having to hear all the mumble chatter about everyone’s legs killing them, it sure felt like I missed a lot. So today’s Q was a bit selfish, designed more to punish me than anything else.
Here’s what went down:
Started things off with high knees to get everyone’s aching legs back in working order. 20x IC. Drop for 10 OYO burpees. Plank up for Peter Parkers, Plank Jacks, Parker Peters, and back up for butt kicks, all 20x IC. Legs, legs, legs.
Mosey to Ei’s benches (which somehow no one in this PAX knew existed??), hit some Freak Nasties, followed by left leg Bulgarian Split Squats, Freaks, Right Leg BSS, Freaks – all 15x IC. T-claps to Shooter, who was going so deep on these splits, he nearly took down one of the concrete benches.
Mosey back to the Trailhead corridor for a partner routine: 1 man does Merkins while the other sprints the walkway and back, then swap. Up to 100. Then onto 100 Jump Squats, but instead of sprints we turned around and hit the trailhead stairs, up and back.
Mosey back to the benches: Freaks, left leg Step-ups, Freaks, right leg Step-ups, Freaks, all 15x IC. More grumbling about legs and how YHC wasn’t present Saturday, so couldn’t possibly know the pain the PAX was in. Yeah, yeah, yeah…
Mosey to the grass for Captain Thor, up to 10 big boy sit-ups and 40 Putins. Then finish off the thang with Burp ‘n Merk, all the way up to 10. T-Claps to Grundy, who not only went up to 10 while the rest of us were gasping and groaning, but also went all the way back down to 1.
Quick Mary of Flutters, Hello Dolly’s, Freddie Mercs, 20x IC, then Jane Fonda’s (R&L) and quick pulses (R&L), 15x IC.
You guys are beasts, thanks for letting me lead. Keep on pushing.
